The reconciled booking
4 nights in Florida, both sides of the money
A worked example at Florida rates — not a live listing. A representative 4-night trip priced by the same cents engine that runs checkout, printed as two receipts that settle to the same figure.

Tax estimates shown are illustrative. Actual tax is calculated at checkout based on pickup jurisdiction and current rates. Pick real dates on any Florida listing and the same ledger unfolds on the live price.
Your payout is released after the trip wraps up, then typically reaches your linked bank account within 2–5 business days — the first payout can take longer while Stripe verifies your account.
Florida tax, line by line
The Florida rate stack behind that tax line
Florida RV rentals owe 6% state sales tax (§ 212.05) plus a discretionary county surtax of typically 1% (§ 212.054) — owed to the state, and not added by PickRV at checkout: PickRV holds no Florida certificate of registration (§ 212.18 requires one to collect), so the host remains responsible for this tax. The $2/day rental-car surcharge does NOT apply: Rule 12A-16.002(1)(c)2 expressly excludes RVs with living facilities, travel/camping trailers, and van conversions. A separate $1/day peer-to-peer car-sharing surcharge (§ 212.0606(3)) may apply to drivable RVs booked through a platform — under legal review, not currently collected.
Statute-anchored: Fla. Stat. § 212.05 (state sales tax) · Fla. Stat. § 212.054-.055 (discretionary surtax) · Fla. Admin. Code R. 12A-16.002(1)(c)2 ($2/day surcharge does NOT cover RVs with living facilities) · Fla. Stat. § 212.0606(3) ($1/day p2p surcharge — under legal review for drivable RVs)

Asked before booking
Florida rental money, answered
How much does a Florida RV rental really cost?
A 4-night worked example at Florida rates: $1,556.00 rental subtotal + $155.60 service fee (10%) + $95.00 cleaning + $0.00 tax = $1,806.60. The same engine that prices checkout generated every line.
What does the RV owner actually receive?
$1,448.04 on that worked example — 100% of the base price they set, plus the full cleaning fee. Hosts keep 100% of the base price they set; PickRV adds a 15% markup on top of that base to form the listed price (10% for partner hosts — permanent, either by invitation from our team or automatically at 3+ active listings). Renters pay a separate 10% service fee at checkout, plus state tax — every line itemized before payment.
Is the Florida tax figure exact?
The rate stack is statute-anchored (Fla. Stat. § 212.05 (state sales tax)), last verified 2026-07-09. Tax estimates shown are illustrative. Actual tax is calculated at checkout based on pickup jurisdiction and current rates.
When does money actually move?
48-hour free cancellation before pickup. Your security deposit is released after the 48-hour post-trip review window, unless a damage claim is filed. Your payout is released after the trip wraps up, then typically reaches your linked bank account within 2–5 business days — the first payout can take longer while Stripe verifies your account.
